HHS/CDC RIN: 0920-AA30 Publication ID: Spring 2011 
Title: Possession, Use, and Transfer of Select Agents and Toxins: 1918 Influenza 
Abstract: The Public Health Security and Bioterrorism Preparedness and Response Act of 2002 authorizes the HHS Secretary to regulate the possession, use, and transfer of select agents and toxins that have the potential to pose a severe threat to public health and safety. These regulations are set forth at 42 CFR 73. Based on public comments we received, we are proposing to revise the entry for the 1918 pandemic influenza virus from "reconstructed replication competent forms of the 1918 pandemic influenza virus containing any portion of the coding regions of all eight gene segments" to "Chimeric influenza viruses containing gene segments from the 1918 pandemic influenza strain."
